Read between the lines

Make a judgment about the site’s reliability based on your own analysis of the site and the information it contains. Here are some ways to do this:

·       Look for facts you know or can check with a trusted source. If the site gets those facts right, it’s more likely that the other facts on the site are also accurate.

·       Study the language used. Is it angry, satiric or overly impassioned? This may indicate that the site is biased.

·       Consider whether the arguments are logical and  backed up by evidence, and whether the site present only one point of view.

·       Check the links to the source that the author acknowledges. Scholarly writhing, whether in print or online, should include a bibliography.
